From the Facebook page of a guy running for City Council in Mission Viejo, California — gave me a laugh.
Elect Mark Dobrilovic to the Mission Viejo City Council:
I recently asked my friends’ little girl what she wanted to be when she grows up. She said she wanted to be President some day. Both of her parents, liberal Democrats, were standing there, so I asked her, ‘If you were President what would... be the first thing you would do?’ She replied, ‘I’d give food and houses to all the homeless people.’
Her parents beamed with pride.
“Wow...what a worthy goal.’ I told her, ‘But you don’t have to wait until you’re President to do that. You can come over to my house and mow the lawn, pull weeds, and sweep my yard, and I’ll pay you $50. Then I’ll take you over to the grocery store where the homeless guy hangs out, and you can give him the $50 to use toward food and a new house. She thought that over for a few seconds, then she looked me straight in the eye and asked, ‘ Why doesn’t the homeless guy come over and do the work, and you can just pay him the $50? ‘ I said, ‘Welcome to the Republican Party.’
Her parents still aren’t speaking to me.
Why doesnt the homeless guy just vote for Obama so he can take the money from you (the main character) to give to the him (the homeless man) to spend to ‘stimulate’ the economy? Then when he has no money to hire the homeless man Obama can attack him for being greedy and claim the stimulus ‘saved’ the homeless man's job.
Practically I would want most homeless men fooling around with my lawn mower.
